The assault of so many “inputs” in our lives makes it incredibly difficult to concentrate. We simply have so much noise in our lives.

We need a determination to push through and focus on the ways of God. It takes determination.

The Psalmist cries out:

Make me understand the way of your precepts,
and I will meditate on your wondrous works.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2001). (Ps 119:27). Wheaton: Standard Bible Society.

And again:

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;
I set your rules before me.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2001). (Ps 119:30). Wheaton: Standard Bible Society.

I pray for holy determination in my life. May I lock on to his ways and shove aside the noise of this world!
